ARA---------------------------Political activity is heating up over the question of who will be the next Chief Minister of Bihar. The NDA has secured a landslide victory, but the situation regarding Nitish Kumar's re-election remains unclear. Insider reports suggest that the BJP is considering a name for its Chief Minister, while the Janata Dal (United) has clearly indicated on social media that Nitish Kumar is its first and final choice.

JDU has released a poster on social media, raising political heat. The poster features a large photo of Chief Minister Nitish Kumar with the caption, "Bihar is prosperous, Nitish Kumar is back again." In the caption, the party claims, "Bihar is prosperous... Bihar is safe."

According to political analysts, this message from the JDU clearly indicates that the party is not in a mood to relinquish the Chief Minister's post at any cost. This poster appears to challenge the BJP's potential strategy of unveiling its own Chief Ministerial candidate in the future.

Although the BJP is currently promoting Nitish Kumar as the CM in public forums, this poster released within the alliance points to new political equations. All eyes are now on the BJP's next move. The NDA has yet to officially announce the name of the Chief Minister.

Discussions on this issue are intense among alliance partners like the BJP, JDU, LJP (Ram Vilas), HAM, and RLM, and a final decision may be taken in a joint meeting soon.

However, the JDU's latest poster clearly indicates that the party has made up its mind. This has further fueled speculation in Bihar politics. As the BJP is the largest party in the alliance, it can stake its claim to the Chief Minister's post.
